Dear House Republicans…

I know you enjoy incorrectly citing the president’s economic adviser to tout the illusory benefits of more tax cuts. And hey, I can see the allure of making tax cracks about Daschle and Geithner.

But why use the same dubious talking point in a letter to the president today? Courtesy of Roll Call, I notice that you told Obama how you:

presented a plan that would create more than twice that number [of jobs] based on research conducted by [the] nominee to chair the Council of Economic Advisors, Dr. Christina Romer

Obama still has a BlackBerry, guys. He can find out that this is bogus in less than a minute.

Love, Elana
